Thank you very much, both niktak11 and Balthazar-B. The pump, unfortunately, is of unknown power requirements, and is down 220 feet. I opened the service box for it, and they didn't put any label or paperwork in there. (They didn't even run the underground line in a conduit.) I called a local well-drilling service to see if they could help (the original installer is out of business) but they haven't responded yet.
I've started another thread over in the Beginner section, and I asked about the soft-start module. That's certainly something to keep in the "bag of tricks" possibilities. But, if I understand the capability of the Sol-Ark unit, that shouldn't be necessary. If I can get someone to install it, I'm not going to put it ahead of our main panel with the 240v appliances. I'll put it between that and the house 110v subpanel, just for emergency outages.
I still haven't resolved if this Sol-Ark unit will serve my purposes, with 15kWh of backup. I'm trying to learn as much as I can, and I really appreciate your help! Thanks!
